 Get paid in something other than cash, pay people for their time spent helping you. This is a way to get small and isolated economy's, ether geographic or social, to start creating and spending money and add value.

Working on self motiveation

 Here is an interesting app for time management for those professionals or student that need an extra hand working from home. Especially if you do both and suddenly you time become very precious.

Pros: Will block/control access to applications and websites at certain time periods. Its the next best thing
to being in an office and having a boss looking over your shoulder.
I'm installing now but it looks like its has awesome data collection and presentation features.

Cons. It is sitting seriously close to the line of privacy invasion. You install it and control it, but you should still be aware of when its on and what data it collects, and who it send it too. Your asked to sign up on line for an account so does the company have access to everyone's logs...?

Generation Flux

A few days after I decided to blog, I came across an interesting article about chaos theory, and the new environment we all face today in life and in work. Not being inspired much by anything else I was working towards, and seeming to fit the whole idea of how I feel about the world around me, I settle on this. Generation Flux, the new generation of dynamic people, constantly willing to change the way they see the world, and how it can work for them.
